it 1st or it recognizes the gray armed competence, not the t p l f. so it actually begins to say, yes, there are people who are not necessarily party but are the army and those who are the we dealing with. the 2nd point is let me just read you item to see. it says upon disengagement, the federal authorities shall assume federal responsibilities in accordance with the constitution for all areas including the resumption of services. if that is the case, then frankly is not up to the t p l f, or anybody else to let the, the 8 in. it's up to the federal authorities. that is what they have signed. business, you can win a war, you can win a conflict who can manage to use your levers to salvage whatever you can from a political agreement. but don't you think that the biggest challenge facing or be made in the near future is to win the hearts and minds of people into gray after all the atrocities committed against them? yeah, the most important thing is to build trust that was between the 2 parties and it in the leader of the federal government and the people

minister abbey made came to power in 2018. 2 years later he ordered a military operation against the t p l. f. he accused the group of attacking military bases and holding an unauthorized regional election. and then to guy has been under blockade for 17 months with aid, restricted and internet and phone service has blocked. both sides have been accused of violating human rights. now the last cease fires signed in august broke down, and ethiopian government forces were closing in on to great regional capital mckelly. that was just before the latest round of talks. after this cease fire was announced. if he appears prime minister in a statement said, the agreement signed to day in south africa is monumental in moving ethiopia forward. our commitment to peace remain steadfast. now the t p a left says a ceasefire is not only a relief to the people of to gray, but to all of ethiopia, the source was literally we have mit painful concessions because addressing the prince or her pupil is far more important than the kinds of concessions work mit yes, we have really concessions because we have to build
